i am from Pakistan
Please contact me regarding squash… Im seeking friends to play with…
I would like to contact Richard Castle. I am a friend of Max and Anita Platt (known to him). If you could pass this message to him & ask him to contact me, or he can e-mail me. My query is in connection with a car that he sold the Platts. My query is only technical, no finance involved.
Don Wilson-donwil@worldonline co.za
PS Richard & I met a couple of times at the Platt home. He might even remember me!
Thanks.
Dear Melvyn
Thank you for your e-mail. Actually I am sure that you would have attended Craig Sadler’s Refereeing clinic and found out that there are very few minor changes in the rules – most are wording – and thus do not warrant the expense of a reprint of the interference and injury rules.
Those posters of which there are still some available were funded by the Lottery. One has to include such items in the application and in 2013 there was n advertisement.
Enjoy our squash.
Liz
Dear Don
Richard’s e-mail is Richard@squashsa.co.za.
I shall send him one about this post.
Happy motoring
Liz
This is a long shot … Does anyone have contact details for Max and Anita Platt? If it is the same family, they did live in Port Edward at one time and then moved to the Western Cape.
Hi,
At our squash courts (Lynwood Squash Club, KZN Midlands), we had a large, laminated poster (if you wanna call it that) of the singles rules of squash. These I am lead to believe were sent out by Squash SA long time ago to all the clubs for their notice boards. With the rules changing this year, are there any plans to re-send out these laminated posters for our respective notice boards.

Good day
I just want to find out how one can become a professional squash coach? Are there certain courses one has to go through? If so, who can I contact and what steps do I need to attain in order to get this qualification?
Thanks
Dear Dirk
Thank you for your query.
Each province organises its own courses (in the same format) so you will need to contact the secretary of the province in which you live.
Level 1 is the course most often conducted by a qualified Level 2 coach.
It takes about 24 hours so is done on a weekend.
To become qualified one has to : attend the entire course: complete the workbook: pass the Level 2 Refereeing examination and be practically assessed.
Which province are you in?
Liz
Hi Liz.Thanks for the reply. I am currently based in Johannesburg. What sort of cost is involved?
I require more details for Level 1 coaching certificate in Jo’burg area, cost, timelines, venue, etc.
